My 18. yr. old son is experiencing much of the same symptoms and problems posted in this forum.  We just had a blood test done and found out that his estrogen levels are higher than should be.  And the same day I heard on NPR that fish are developing both female and male characteristics, even growing eggs in their testes(if you'd like to hear this go to the NPR site and search in the archives).  The cause of this phenomenon was said to be estrogen mimicking chemicals that can be found in plastics(it has been proven that water bottles seep these chemicals), personal care products, pesticides, and soy products.  There seems to be an epidemic of these problems in people that should not have them (age wise) and it might be environmetally caused.  Have your doctors check you estrogen levels, and try to eat organic, and stay away from plastics and unnatural personal care products(shower gels, soaps, shampoo, etc.) and soy products.  I bet milk and meat might be a problem too. Good luck!
